News in Brief: M.I.A., Liam Gallagher, Eminem, Lil Wayne

-- When Amy Winehousecanceled her Coachella appearance, it seemed like it would be almost impossible for the show's organizers to find a replacement of comparable headline-grabbing potential. Well, they found one: M.I.A. will play her first show since having a baby at the California desert throwdown on April 18. The Coachella folks first revealed the news via Twitter, of course. In other M.I.A. news, TMZ got ahold of her kid's birth certificate, so now we know his name: Ikyd Edgar ArularBronfman. (Ikhyd will probably be making fun of Bronx Mowgli Wentz on the playground in a few years.) "Edgar" and "Arular" are Ikyd's grandfathers' names. Yes, that would be Edgar Bronfman Jr., the guy who runs Warner Music Group and father of M.I.A.'s fiance Benjamin Bronfman, and Arular Pragasm, M.I.A.'s father, who is a controversial figure in British and Sri Lankan politics.

-- Oasisfrontman Liam Gallagher has started a clothing line called Pretty Green. In a video on the line's website, Gallagher, looking scarily like a mutton-chopped Christian Bale, explains: "I'm not into the skinny look-- these skinny things, man. That's what I'm here for, man, to fuckin' get rid of that shit." Always a class act, that guy. Given that the fashion line's named after a song from mod-revival icons the Jam, Gallagher's probably not talking about knockoff JNCOs here. Instead: "Really plain. Blacks, browns." He also uses the word "classic" a lot. Pretty Green launches in June.

-- Eminem will induct Run-DMC into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Hopefully he won't just read his speech off a Blackberry like Jay-Z did when he inducted Grandmaster Flash. The induction ceremony goes down in Cleveland on April 4. Other Hall of Fame matchups: Flea inducting Metallica, Jimmy Page inducting Jeff Beck, the Rolling Stones' Ron Wood inducting Bobby Womack, and Smokey Robinson inducting Little Anthony and the Imperials.

-- The folks at VH1 apparently couldn't wait for the epic Lil Wayneflameout that seems weirdly inevitable now. The network will relaunch its great "Behind the Music" series in July, and one episode will feature Weezy, as MTV reports. There's also a Scott Weiland episode in the works, which should follow the traditional "B.T.M." fame-addiction-fall-redemption arc a little more closely.
